Albert Manufacturing uses the weighted average method of computing equivalent units of production. In beginning work in process, there were 9000 units 30% complete as to conversion. In ending work in process, there were 5000 units 60% complete. 13 000 units were completed during the year. Determine the equivalent units of production.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The equivalent units of production are 16,000. This is calculated as follows:Beginning work in process: 9000 units x 30% complete = 2700 equivalent unitsEnding work in process: 5000 units x 60% complete = 3000 equivalent unitsUnits completed: 13,000 unitsTotal equivalent units of production: 2700 + 3000 + 13,000 = 16,000
